Kate clutched his biceps as he held her up, inches off his lap, while he fucked her. Until she was right on the verge of falling over.
Then he pressed her hips down so he was buried inside her once more. She moved with him, riding him hard. Her head fell back. Her breath came in heavy pants.
“Jake.” Everything within her stretched thin. Then released. “Oh, God!” She repeated the words over and over, despite them being incoherent even to her.
Jake pumped heartily and then his body convulsed as his own climax ripped through him.
“Kate,” he said in a gruff voice. “Oh, fuck…”
His arms wound around her waist and he held her close. His face burrowed in the crook of her neck. His lips teased her skin with his labored breathing.
She could stay in this moment forever. Everything about it was so tempting. So tantalizing and…
Heartwarming.
How long had it been since she’d felt this charged with a man? This cherished?
Had she ever, really?
Kate racked her brain and came up empty-handed.
When Jake whispered, “It’s still early, you know?” she laughed softly.
Pulling slightly away from him, she said, “I realize you’re twenty-five and invincible. But I’m already guessing I won’t be able to walk come morning.”
The wicked glint in his eyes made her shiver anew with excitement. “No need to walk. Tomorrow’s Saturday. Spend the day in bed. With me.”
There was a ripple of exhilaration low in Kate’s belly—and in her heart.
Maybe it was dangerous.
Maybe it truly was wrong.
But Scarlett was still in the house…
“Alright.”

Jake made love to her in the wee hours of the morning, before dawn broke. Slowly, sensuously, he loved her, as though time and the outside world ceased to exist. As though they had nowhere to be, no responsibilities, no outside commitments or impediments. Then they talked until the sun came up. He wanted to know about her family and although she felt a tinge of guilt for the uncomplicated, privileged childhood she’d had, she told him about her travels.
“My father is an adventurer at heart and he married the right woman.” Kate’s head rested on Jake’s chest. His arm was draped across her shoulders and his fingertips drew lazy circles on her biceps. “He wanted to see the world and she was happy to follow him wherever he went. We only really settled down as a family when I was in high school. But after senior year…”
She smiled as she thought about the way her parents’ pride in her for being class valedictorian had warred with their anticipation over knowing they could hit the high seas as soon as her diploma landed in her hands and her graduation cap flew into the air.
“They spent nearly six months exploring Asia, then had me meet up with them at a ski resort in the Swiss Alps during my first college Christmas break. The pattern continued, always someplace new and exciting to see.”
“Where haven’t you been, then?”
“Oh, plenty of places, believe me. It’s a big-ass world.”
Jake chuckled. “So you still have some exploring to do?”
“Definitely.”
He shifted on the bed, forcing her onto her back. His large body pressed against hers as he settled between her legs.
Staring down at her, the moonlight streaming in through the blinds, illuminating his handsome face, he said, “I’d like to have a few adventures with you, Kate Hampton.”
